In Loving Memory.
Of Mrs. Evaline Worley who
departed this life May 21, 1917
Her remains were laid to rest at
Zion Hill cemetery Tuesday.
She was 78 years, 5 months and
1 day old when the Lord saw fit
to call her home where there
will be no more sad parting nor
tears shed. Oh, how sad it
was to give grandmother up but
:we know she is better off. She
sure did suffer until death,
i She leaves seven children, 5
boys and two girls and several
| grandchildren and other rela
tives and friends to mourn her
loss. She was loved by all who
knew her, and will be missed by
! all. Oh, how sad it was to think
we can never see grandmother
again but if we live as she did
we can meet her on yonder
shore where there will be no
sad parting. Oh blessed Lord
may we live a true Christian
life in this world, may we live
such a life that when we are
called to die we may be able to
feel that we can cross that dark
river without fear and trembl
ing with God’s loving hand to
lead us. May we enter on the
side with joy safe at home with
all our loved ones where we will
all be together once more nev
er to part again where we wil
live together. How sad home is
without grandmother. She has
paid the debt we all have to
pay sooner or later. Poor
grandmother was blind about
7 years, oh how sad to give poor
grandmother up but the Lord
knew' best, but she is better oil
than we.
She was sick two weeks when
we would go to the bed side and
ask her how she felt she would
say she did not feel any better
every time.
Oh we loved her, yes we lov
ed her but the angels loved her
more. We feel sad and lonely
to know that we will never, no
see her dear face on earth again
nor hear her sweet voice any
more. She bore her suffering
with patience even as a Chris
tian should for she knew the
time would come when her dear
Lord would call her home
where all would be peace and
love, where there is no suffering
nor death.
A precious one from us is
gone, a voice wo loved is still, a
place is vacant in our home that
never can be filled, peaceful in
the grave so low thou art wait
ing for the dear ones here, we
will join her in the heavenly
land no more to take the part
ing hand.
She died at the home of her
son R. R. Worley.
The funeral services was con
ducted by Revs. G. W. Forrist
and J. L. Wyatt.
Written by her grand-child
ren, Minnie and Desser Worley
and Maggie Sewell,
In Loving Memory.
Of Carroll, the nine months
old son of Mr. and Mrs. J. M.
Bales, who deuarted this life on
May 9th, 1917.
He was sick practically all of
his life but the constant atten
tion required by him endeared
him to his family as no other
thing could have done. During
his last days of sickness he suf
fered much but bore it with
much fortitude.
We would say to the father,
mother, brothers and sisters to
weep not for him as one that
has no hope. While it is very
hard to give him up w T e must
remember that it is the will of
Him who said, “Suffer the lit
tle childre to come unto me and
forbid them not for of such is
the kingdo mof heaven.
Carroll can not come back to
us, but we,thru the tender mer
cies of an omnipotent God can
go to him.
If he could speak to us he
would say, “Do not weep for
me for I am better off than you
for while you are in the oldsin
ful world, I am basking in the
sun light of God's love. Let us
ever be ready to meet Carroll,
no matter at what hour we are
called to the skies, for if that op
portunity is lost we will never
see him again.
His Uncle,
Jesse Bales.
.. In Memory.
On April 28, 1917, Robert
Dinsmore passed into the Great
Beyond. He had been sick sev
eral weeks, and tongue can not
tell what he suffered.
God in His infinite wisdom
has called Robert from our
midst to His golden home above
prepared for His among he will
forever be a bright star, a
gleaming light, guiding those
left behind to the brighter home
above. He was a consistent
I Christian and was always kind
to others. He joined Union Hill
Baptist church in the year 1910
A short while before he died he
called his loved ones to his bed
side and told them to meet him
in heaven. He said he wanted
i them to sing “We Shall Meet In
That beautiful Land” as they
carried his body from the
church to the grave. He did
not fear death. He expressed
his willingness to die and talk
ed several times of dying. His
body was laid to rest in the
Hopewell cemetery after servi
ces conducted by Rev. R. A. Ro
per.
Call not back the dear departed
Anchored safe where storms
are o’er.
On the border land we left him,
Soon to meet and jfart no
more.
When we leave this world of
changes,
When we leave this world of
care.
We shall find our missing loved
one
In our Father’s mansion fair;
Dear Robert, thou hast left us.
And our loss we deeply feel,
But ’tis God that has bereft us~
He can all our sorrows heal.
Yet again w’e hope to meet thee
When the day of life isfied,
When in Heaven in joy to greet
thee,
Where no farew ell tear is shed
We extend to the bereaved
C. B. GWIN HAS
GAINED 30 POUNDS
Produce Man Had Rheumatism
So Bad His Muscles Felt Like
They Were Tied in a Knot.
“Yes, sir, it is a fact when I
tell you that I have gained thir
ty pounds on Tanlac, and am
now able to do about twice the
amount of work I have been
able to do at anytimO'during the
past ten years,” said Mr. C. B.
Gwin, the well-known produce
man of Amory, Miss., in telling
of the wonderful results he had
obtained from Tanlac.
“I have been in a general run
down condition for sometime,”
continued Mr. Gwin, “and suf
fered principally with rheuma
tism. My whole system seemed
rundown, deilitated, I could not
sleep at night and I would feel
in the morning just as fatigued
tvs I did upon going to bed at
night. My digestion became ef
fected and I couldn’t eat. At
tacks of violent headaches were
frequent, and my nervous sys
tem seemed to be all disorder
ed. The rheumatism was so
severe at times my muscles
seemed as if they were t:od up
in a knot. I lost a good deal
in weight and it looked like I
was getting weaker and weak
er every day.
“I was persuaded to try Tan
lac and I got a bottle of the med
icine. It is certainly making a
new man of me. I can now eat
and sleep better than I have in j
years. My rheumatism has all (
gone and I feel strong and built
up in every way. I am a well
man and certainly am thankful
that I found out about this won
derful medicine. As I have al
ready said, I have gained thir
ty pounds in six weeks’ time,
and I feel stronger and better
than I have in years. Tanlac
has certainly straightened me
out, and I believe it will do the
same thing for anyone else who
has the same trouble I had.”

Let Nothing Discourage You.
If soldiers should get discourag
ed.
While fighting or at w'ork,
And say, there’s no use trying
And all the hard tasks shirk,
And keep on shirking, shirking
Until all was out of heart
What would Pres. W’ilson say
And who would take his part.
The coward in the conflicts
Gives up at first defeat,
If once repulsed, his courage
Lies shattered at his feet;
The brave hearts win the battle
Because thru thick and thin
They’ll not give up as conquerd
They’ll fight and fight to win.
Now soldiers don’t get disheart
ened,
Because you’re young my lad,
Don’t ever let our flag be lower
ed
For twould make us feel so sad
Do your part dear soldier
Capture all the Germans you
-can,
And when this war is settled,
Let this world say, “Uncle Sam
is the man.”

AFTER SIX YEARS
Gainesville Testimony Remains
Unshaken.
Time is the best test of truth.
Here is a Gainesville story that
has Mood the test of time. It is
a stt ry with a point which will
come slaight home to many of
us.
Mrs. R. E. Montgomery, 61
W. Myrtle St., Gainesville, Ga.,
says: “My kidneys acted irreg
ularly and ' there was a lot of
pain and lameness in my back
and hips. I suffered from head
aches and sometimes I couldn’t
sleep. I used differeent reme
dies and tried plasters and lini
ments, but nothing brought me
relief. I read of Doan’s Kid
ney Pills one day and decided
to try them as they were high
ly recommended. They proved
to be just the remedy my system
required and in a short time I
felt better. I continued taking
Doan’s Kidney Pills until I was
free from backache and other
signs of kidney trouble.”
A Later Statement
Over six years later, Mrs.
Montgomery said: “You may
continue to use my former en-*
dorsement of Doan’s Kidney
Pills. All I said before still
holds good. I always keep a sup
ply of Doan’s Kidney Pills on
hand and whenever I use them
I get good results. I have great
confidence in this remedy.”
